Unofficial Online VMware User Group #1
Yesterday I launched the first Unofficial Online VMware User Group, this included presentations and demonstrations from both Scott Herold (Quest) and Aaron Sweemer (VMware).
I was very happy with the numbers, peak attendance was around 35-40 which is not a bad number for the first show.
Scott gave a great demonstration of The VESI which was a great hit with all, following this Aaron gave us an overview of the new features and enhancements that vSphere is delivering.
As this was the first UOVMUG there were a few issues and a few observations, please let me know what you think and any way we can improve this via the comments at the bottom of this page.
My thoughts for next time:
- Add a chat window or ‘open mic’ to enable more interaction
- 45 mins per each presenter, 15 mins intro and 10 mins exit
- More giveaways !
For those of you unable to make it I have uploaded the entire VMUG which can be viewed below:

Great initiative, Alan, very nice work. Enjoying the VESI presentation a lot, was great to see its practical value. For next time: easier way to chat/interact with others, and plan a half an hour for open mic discussion. Otherwise: very neatly done!

Hi Alan,
Thanks for organising, managed to connect for most of it apart from dodgy wireless in my hotel! I think a chat window would be great, think that was the only part that was missing. Good work.
Cheers

And I will add my thanks to you as well for setting this up.
I am sure all the quirks will be sorted out over time.
And of course the obvious question: “When is the next one?”

Al,
Sorry I missed this session I would have loved to have been there live.
Is it just me or is there an issue starting the Vimeo recording?
Please let me know when the next one is.
See you at the next London VMUG.
